React.js insert script tag from remote CDN

Question

I would like to insert scripts into the header of my page (or at least they have to be loaded before the render method of my component is called).

The scripts in question are from here if it matters :

<!-- jQuery -->
<script src='https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js'></script>

<!-- Firebase -->
<script src='https://cdn.firebase.com/js/client/2.0.2/firebase.js'></script>

<!-- Firechat -->
<link rel='stylesheet' href='https://cdn.firebase.com/libs/firechat/2.0.1/firechat.min.css' />
<script src='https://cdn.firebase.com/libs/firechat/2.0.1/firechat.min.js'></script>

You can place your scripts in your index.html file before you load your react bundle.
